lyrics

I appreciate that Shade
You already know what we doing man
Had to come back on the eastside for this man
Look man
I told em like this look
A ShadeMayhem thing this ya understand

Verse1
Rob a nigga homicide you don’t think twice
But if they kill us in the street then you play nice
Help me understand
This don’t feel right
You posted on the gram
Fight the power right
Fuck all that begging and pleading
Stop posting murders online
If you keep watching us dying
Then you just killing yo mind
Brainwashed brother I ain’t yo enemy
Same struggle bruh you could be kin to me
Brainwashed sista White media
Don’t you listen to what they feeding ya
Stop supporting the people that disrespect you
But have some sense about yourself and I’ll respect you
Hard times real
Bad times worse
Oh you a feminist well you black first
And this a black verse
Oh yes this black hurts
Fuck yo feelings you don’t like it
Ride a black hearse
I never sold dope on records
Like these cap niggas
I never faked like I was jumping
Out the trap nigga
I tell my story have some fun
Travel cross the world
But you don’t love it
Less I kill you
Then I steal yo girl
Don’t shoot the messenger
Don’t shoot the messenger
Don’t shoot the messenger

Chorus
They call it green for the cheese
Like them nachos
Love the green like
Cilantro on mi tacos
Renegade Cowboy like a Huaso
I’m Jacob Lawrence
But you only know Picasso
They call it greed for the cheese
Like them nachos
Love the green like
Cilantro on mi tacos
Renegade Cowboy like a Huaso
I’m Jacob Lawrence
But you only know Picasso
Don't shoot the messenger
Don't shoot the messenger
Yea

Verse 2
I'm still vitamins n minerals
Trevis T. the general
Mils like the cereal
Status is imperial
Slave to material
They got you on a leash
These vultures on the loose
The culture is the feast
Blood on they hands
But they lotion up they feet
While they motion to the beat
You better not think
You better just dance
They taking all our styles
They using all our words
It’s flattering like wow

Chorus
They call it green for the cheese
Like them nachos
Love the green like
Cilantro on mi tacos
Renegade Cowboy like a Huaso
I’m Jacob Lawrence
But you only know Picasso
They call it greed for the cheese
Like them nachos
Love the green like
Cilantro on mi tacos
Renegade Cowboy like a Huaso
I’m Jacob Lawrence
But you only know Picasso
Don't shoot the messenger
Don't shoot the messenger
Yeah
Gone
